He is too uptight about his belief system, not open to any other opinion.

Now, time for the critical reactions to the interview
My ex-husband once slapped me across the face. I hit him back cause I couldn't take his shit. Later he made me feel guilty about "making him slap me". No Sandeep Reddy Vanga, it wasn't love. I've been in love. THIS wasn't that.

What an arrogant sexist prick this man #SandeepReddyVanga is! And insecure as hell. His film is a monstrous hit and yet he is rattled by what critics had to say. And no Mr. Vang’s, you do not call someone fat - that’s rude, offensive, inconsiderate and very politically incorrect.

Was thinking #ArjunReddy/#KabirSingh represented a problematic character.
Appalled to know that it stemmed from #SandeepReddyVanga’s idiotic ideas about love.
PS: Violence against women/men is NOT love. Get that straight!

Utterly disrespectful! Insensitive comments on women and how they need to be treated. That Freudian slip with the name was the saving grace. https://t.co/3e8bhTb5Bv

Kabir Singh might have been slammed by the critics but the movie has worked like a charm at the box office. It has become Shahid Kapoor's first solo film to enter the Rs 200 crore club. The movie stars Kiara Advani as the female lead. And well, now you know who directed the movie, very well.
